Chapter 1921 Bad Premonition

The members of the Eighth Route Army District team began to look at the guns in their hands and started talking at the same time.

Just as Hou Kanshan said, these guns were originally seized from bandits, and there were all kinds of guns. Some of the guns looked so good that not only had the members of the district team never seen them before, but even the captain of the district team might not have seen them before.

At this time, Wang Chuan said, "Don't worry, I know all these guns. I will tell you how to use them when the time comes."

After Wang Chuan said this, the team members quieted down, and Wang Chuan then turned to Shang Zhen and said, "It's definitely not okay for us to pierce our ears right after getting into the sedan chair.

But we must hurry up, otherwise things will change.”

Shang Zhen nodded. Now he was sure that Wang Chuan was a serious soldier.

"Fortunately, it is not far from our base now. I will send someone back. Ask a company to rush to Wujiaopo." Shang Zhen said without changing his expression, although he felt helpless in his heart.

"That's great." Wang Chuan smiled.

"Shen Mugen, you must hurry back to find Chu Tian and explain the situation here to him. Tell Chu Tian's company to hurry to Wujiaopo and take a carriage." Shang Zhen gave the order.

Shen Mugen responded with a "yes" and naturally ran away.

But he had just run a few steps when Shang Zhen suddenly shouted again: "Wait!"

Shen Mugen quickly stopped and when he turned around to look at Shang Zhen, he saw that Shang Zhen had a thoughtful expression.

After a while, Shang Zhen said to himself, "It's not appropriate for you to go back." Then he looked at the Eighth Route Army District team and said, "Find someone who is smart and quick to report to us."

After Shang Chun said this, everyone present was stunned. Why didn't he use his own messenger but someone else to deliver the message?

"Our people can go, but how can your people believe us?" asked the district team leader.

"Of course I have a way to do this." Shang Zhen replied.

"Okay, where do we need to go?" the district team leader asked again.

"Not far from Liuji, there is a village called Shijia Village, right? That is where our camp is stationed.

We must go to Shijia Village, not anywhere else." Shang Zhen emphasized.

"Erwazi, you go." said the district team leader.

"I will ensure that the mission is completed!" A young man who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen jumped out from the crowd.

Shang Zhen looked at the young man and nodded, saying, "Heroes have always emerged from youth. When we first started fighting the Japanese, we were all about your age!"

When the second kid heard Shang Zhen say this, his eyes lit up.

  Seventeen or eighteen years old is the time when one is full of vigor and dreams. Who doesn't want to make achievements in the process of fighting against Japanese invaders?

"Don't bring a gun with you. If you meet someone with a gun on the road and ask you, just say you are a local. Do you understand?" Shang Zhen said again.

"I understand!" The second kid's reply was crystal clear!

"After you find our camp's people, learn my words clearly and have Chu Tian's company change into civilian clothes and take a carriage to Wujiapo.

Tell them that we are going to attack the lair of a group of bandits.

If you are familiar with this area, please take a shortcut and walk faster to avoid being seen. It would be best if other troops do not know about our company's actions.

If you want that company commander named Chu Tian to believe that you are telling me what you are telling me, then you can say that your battalion commander said the code for the meeting is "Little girl on the edge of the well," Shang Zhen said again.

"I understand!" Erwazi didn't expect Shang Zhen to use such a code word. He held back his laughter and answered quickly.

"Repeat my orders." Shang Zhen said again.

Erwazi repeated it and it was generally pretty good.

But Shang Zhenzhen was still worried, so he said, "Leng Xiaozhi, write down what I said. Just talking won't do! Let him take the note back."

But just when Leng Xiaozhi took out a pen and paper to write again, Shang Zhen said, "Let me write it. They don't recognize your handwriting." At this point, no one said anything. Although the district team could not be considered a large force and the soldiers did not have the qualities of a large force, they all felt that Shang Zhen was a bit slow in handling the matter.

Finally, Erwazi stuffed the note Shang Zhen gave him into his shoe and went towards Shijia Village.

At this time, Wang Chuan led the district teams to familiarize themselves with the weapons.

"Why does it take so much trouble for you to deliver a message?" Leng Xiaozhi asked Shang Zhen in confusion.

When they heard Leng Xiaozhi's question, the veterans under Shang Zhen, as well as Xu Lang and Wang Chuan all looked over.

Shang Zhen knew he needed to give everyone an explanation, so he said, "You all remember the guy who killed Chen San! We didn't catch up with the one who ran away.

Why did he only kill the bandit leader? Couldn't he have shot me at that time? But why didn't he shoot me?

I think if he shot me to death, he would know that he would not be able to escape, and you guys would definitely chase him desperately, and then he would be in no danger.

So he beat the bandit leader to death, which was a way to silence him.

Why do we want to silence them? To prevent the bandit leader from saying that they were the ones who ordered him to rob us.

Therefore, the people who instigated Chen San to ambush us should be people we know.

Having said this, Shang Zhen stopped talking.

But after he had said so much, how could the old soldiers around him not understand what he meant? They looked at each other and began to make guesses.

"One more thing. We didn't tell them where we were going. How do you think they knew which road we were on?" Shang Zhen said again, "They must have placed people at every intersection, but we didn't notice."

  At this point, the soldiers, Wang Chuan and Xu Lang looked at each other, and Xu Lang even looked into the distance. All of them suddenly felt like they were being watched!

What Shang Zhen said is right!

The mastermind behind them had no idea where their two carriages were going.

If you don't know where they are going, you naturally don't know which way to take.

When they were halfway there, some bandits ambushed them. The only way out for the gang was to follow them.

Just imagine, their two carriages are winding through the fields, but there is always someone watching the direction of their carriages and deciding where to ambush them. This is too scary to think about!

"Because of this, I can't let Shen Mugen go back to report the news.

That group of people even dared to kill me, do you think they dare not kill Shen Mugen?

So we can only send someone that group of people don’t know back to report the news.

I'm just being a bit stubborn, there's nothing I can do about it, are you satisfied with my explanation?"

For a moment, everyone nodded frequently.

No one had expected that Shang Zhen's mind would be so meticulous. When they thought about it, they were filled with admiration and all nodded.

As for who the real murderer behind the scenes was, Shang Zhen did not say it clearly, but Xu Lang and Wang Chuan guessed that it must be from their Northeast Army.

As for the veterans under Shang Zhen, they had already guessed who that person was.

After a moment's silence, Hou Kanshan suddenly sighed.

Everyone was looking at him, and Hou Kanshan said, "To fight the Japs, we should all work together. Why are we scheming against each other among our own people?"

"Just be content. We haven't had any traitors so far!" Qian Chuaner said.

But after he finished speaking, he felt that what he said was not a good thing, so he hit himself on the mouth in a fake way.

Shang Zhen had no choice but to smile bitterly. Of course, he would not say such words out loud, but what he was thinking in his heart was, please don't let it come true. Who dares to say that there are no traitors among the people of Northeast China!

Even though Shang Zhen was unwilling to admit it in his heart, he had anticipated that with their division's current fighting style, things would only become increasingly difficult in the future, and there was no guarantee which group of people would actually surrender to the Japanese army!
